Ingredients
- Soft flour tortillas (small size, taco-style)
- Unsalted butter (melted, for brushing)
- Granulated sugar (for coating)
- Cream cheese (room temperature)
- Heavy cream
- Powdered sugar
- Vanilla extract
- Golden Oreos (crushed into crumbs)
- Freeze-dried strawberries (crushed)
- Unsalted butter (melted, to bind the crunch)
- Whipped cream (optional)
- Fresh strawberries (sliced, optional)
- Strawberry glaze or syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Brush both sides of the tortillas with melted butter and sprinkle them with granulated sugar. Drape each tortilla over an oven rack or taco shell mold to create a taco shape. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until crispy. Let them cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. Slowly pour in the heavy cream and whip until the mixture is thick and creamy.
- Crush the Golden Oreos and freeze-dried strawberries in a plastic bag using a rolling pin. Mix the crumbs with melted butter until combined. Spread the crunch mixture onto a plate or shallow dish.
- Once the shells are cooled, fill each one with the cheesecake mixture using a spoon or piping bag. Dip the edges of the taco into the strawberry crunch mixture to coat the filling. Add optional toppings like whipped cream, sliced strawberries, or a drizzle of strawberry glaze.
- Arrange the tacos on a serving platter and serve immediately. These are best eaten fresh for maximum crunch and creaminess.
